Safe as Houses with Lisa Heathfield and Catriona Ward

My home is my castle, right? The houses in Such Pretty Things by Lisa Heathfield and The Last House On Needless Street by Catriona Ward are not what they seem to be:

As Clara and Stephen explore their Auntie’s remote home, they uncover ghosts buried long ago. And every day they spend there, bewildered Clara can feel unknown forces changing her brother.  And something else entirely lies buried inside the last house on Needless Street, lived in by Ted, his daughter Lauren and his cat Olivia. 

Goosebumps guaranteed!
